Thousands of workers at Port Talbot face an uncertain future but the

problems faced by this industry have become part of the debate about

whether the UK should stay in the European Union. China is partly

blamed for the crisis because it has cut-price steel and that has driven

down prices but today the Economy Minister in France said Britain

would be weaker if it left the EU and its 500 million consumers. When

you discuss about the steel industry, with China, you are

credible because you are part of the EU, not just the UK, you will never

be in a situation to negotiate face-to-face with China because your

domestic market is not relevant. Others argue that it is EU state aid

rules that prevent the government from supporting businesses in

crisis, including the steel industry. One of the biggest

challenges for out campaigners is to explain how the UK with high and

sell goods for the EU. The French minister has dismissed the idea that

there would be a quick trade deal after a Vote Leave. Campaigners say

that is nonsense. He might be the French presidential candidate next

year, has anyone think he will say to French farmers, were not actually

going to give you access to British supermarkets and future? It will

never happen, he is pragmatic and needs to be elected and it is in his

interest that his producers carry on selling milk and cheese. Whether it

is a French minister, the head of Nato or the American president later

this week, is no shortage of powerful figures lining up to say

that the UK should stay in the EU. But the all insist it is to be

friendly advice, conscious perhaps that the British people may not like

being told what to do by outsiders. Vicki Young, BBC News, Westminster.

Is the president about to be forced to step down? That looks like the

likely possibility. Brazil is the sixth largest economy in the world

president who could be on the point of being unceremoniously kicked out

of office by a hostile Congress. The charges and that she somehow cooked

One of the biggest Roman villas in Britain has been

After an eight-day dig archaeologists have confirmed

The heart of the winter countryside and this picture perfect farmhouse

has been keeping a secret. Today it is a family home and it was whilst

converting a barn into a games room that the truth began to emerge. This

cry went out, we swept back the mud from the hard surface and there was

this perfect mosaic and the colours, as of the day it was laid.

Excavations followed, unearthing the remains of one of the largest Roman

villas ever find in Britain. It is difficult to imagine just how

imposing this bill would have been. Archaeologists think it was at least

three stories high and the front courtyard alone would have taken up

almost this entire field. Experts say the discovery of this scale is

of huge national and international significance. You just do not find

villas in this good condition any more, this is such a rare chance. So

we have had to be very careful about what we have done so far because

imagine the smoke billowing from the chimney of this vast Villa and you

imagine the hustle and bustle. It rings something to live that

actually is just a paddock. For the time being the excavations have

stopped but archaeologists would like to come back to discover more

about what they hope could be the find of their lives.
